Tensile property measurements and fractographic analysis of S-65C beryllium are reviewed. Tests were performed on specimens oriented in the longitudinal and transverse directions with respect to the direction of vacuum hot pressing. Specimens were tested in air at RT, 100 C, 200 C, 300 C, 415 C and 500 C at an initial strain rate of 1.1 {times} 10(sup {minus}4) per second. Ductility of the material was strongly affected by the test temperature, exhibiting a peak ductility at 300 C. The material displayed a yield point phenomenon which was most pronounced at this same temperature. Scanning electron microscopy was performed on the resulting fracture surfaces and observations are reported
